I had my assessment day at the end of October- it took about a week to hear back and they contacted me via phone call. Best of luck!

oooh congrats!, you may have been there when I was there on the 27th - still not heard anything so I’m assuming it’s not good news 🥲🥲🥲

Im in the same boat, attended the Stage 3 assessment a week before you did! Had the same email asking for notice periods, got my hopes up 😅

I’m also still waiting to hear back and now wondering if we’re just waiting for bad news. Wish they’d just inform us by now. Did they tell you how long it would take to get an outcome?

hi, hope your assessment went well. I had mine a few weeks ago. Did they by any chance say how long it would take to hear back for your batch?

Could it be possible that people who are being considered for a later training date could be waiting longer to hear back? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Only worrying thing is i’ve not seen anyone post about getting the bad news email yet, only people who’ve had the call

Maybe that’s why they asked for the notice period 🤔

Experienced ATCOs
 
Hi, has anyone applied through the Experienced ATCO route that closed a couple of months ago. My application is still sitting in "Being Processed" and I'm not sure how long to expect it to take to get any kind of feedback.

Fingers crossed 🤞

Hi, yes mine was on 27th October! I’m struggling to find people on my course so it could be that they are staggering responses in order to fill the courses.

Hi,

I completed my stage 3 assessment on 20th October, I had the email outlining notice periods etc 2 weeks ago but since then I’ve heard nothing.

I did ask at the assessment when we should expect to be told the outcome and was told 3 weeks.

I can only guess it’s going to be negative news.

Moresorbet 14th November 2025 21:10

Yeah me too. I don’t understand why it’s taking them so long to update some of us.

Especially since they said that we’re not competing against others, just ourselves. So they should know how we scored and if we passed or failed any of the tests especially since there were lots of assessors.

Same boat here, attended the same day as you! I feel like they’ll send out all the bad news emails in one go..

I rang them yesterday and spoke to someone at reception who just said to be patient as they’ve been busy - I was on the 27th for my assessment - was told could expect to hear in a couple of weeks but some of you were told 3. Again not sure if this prolonged wait is a bad sign 🥲

Hi , can I ask, did you attend in person or online? Thanks!

Papalegba 17th November 2025 13:05

I had my assessment end of October - like others I received an email asking for my notice period - that got my hopes up but its worn off now haha.

Everyone who’s been offered a place seems to have been offered the January course which my notice period wouldn’t allow for so I’m curious if anyone else who is still waiting to hear back has a notice period which wouldn’t allow them to start in January?

I just want to be put out of my misery now - it’s been about 6 months since I passed stage 2 😅

Anonymous000 10th December 2025 14:20

Is there anyone starting in March who is going to start training for tower at Gloucester?
